The Hobbit Trailer


Watching and rewatching this is making me incredibly happy. Especially the part where Richard Armitage sings. *quietly fangirls*

  6. Ack, I HAVE to read the book before this comes out. I'm already ashamed enough that I haven't read it already. It looks amazing!

  7. I am so there with you. I mean, with a voice like that, I figured he could sing, but...still.

  8. Is any one else tempted to start calling him "Thorton" Oakenshield?
    So excited for this. Equally excited for June 2012 when the Hobbit and LOTR Lego sets hit the stores.

    LOL - I think I need to go re-read this book so I can imagine Richard Armitage in it. I didn't know about him when I first read it years ago.
    Usually I don't like to have the movie characters in my head while I read. I like my imagination better. But in this case, I will make an exception. :)

    Melissa, lol. So true. So true.

    Marg, I knew you'd be particularly pleased with that bit. ;)

    baby, my pleasure.

    Melanie, doesn't it? And, naturally, I really do recommend the book.

    Chelle, indeed. I just . . . sigh.

    Kim, HA! That is what I am calling him from here on out.

    Misti, if ever an exception were warranted, it's now!

    Liz, you are so right.

Angie's Best Books of 2025

This year really came through reading-wise. Initially, I didn't know what to expect. And I think I was a little surprised to find myself feeling a strong pull right from the beginning of the year to published books. I tried quite a few new-to-me authors with more abandon than I have in recent years—something I'm proud of and hope to continue. Not all of them worked in just an Angie-like way, but regret never entered the room. I passed them on. To the Little Free Libraries in my neighborhood, to the used bookstore down the street that I love, to my own public library in donations. Someone will love them. It didn't have to be me. And I loved giving them that little push along their way to the homes of the people who would soak up their words and hold them tight.  What a gift books are. How much I need them and how grateful I am at the end of this year for the ones that came and continued on their way—but most especially for the ones that came to stay.  And so, as has long bee...

Angie's Best Books of 2024

Looking back at it now, it was a really solid reading year. I mean, it did its usual (for me) thing and meandered its merry way, here and there, up and down, and in fits and starts across the span of all twelve months. But it really did shape up nicely. Which is a good thing, because it was—shockingly, I know—another year in which we so desperately needed the authors and books and words of the world to come through for us. And they did, didn't they?  I am, as ever, so grateful for them and their willingness to push through every barrier and battle that I know must try to keep them from putting their visions on paper. And so, as has long been my custom, I record here my list of published books that saw me through the year. Gifts, every one.   (listed in the order in which I read them) The Atlas Complex by Olivie Blake Bride by Ali Hazelwood You Should Be So Lucky by Cat Sebastian Once Persuaded, Twice Shy by Melodie Edwards Lucky Bounce by Cait Nary Lips Like Sugar by Jes...
